Love for God and One Another

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but (E)test the spirits, whether they are of God; because (F)many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: (G)Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess [b]that Jesus [c]Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

On Denying the Incarnation

Dear friends,(G) do not believe every spirit,(H) but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.(I) This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh(J) is from God,(K) but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist,(L) which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.(M)

For we through the Spirit eagerly (A)wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
